Movies have become like chewing gum. A commodity that you consume casually and every day. Watching a movie used to be special. I used to indulge in movies, get completely sucked in on the big screen with big sound. Just think of all the great movies from back then and compare them to the commercial Netflix slob from now. 90% of movies I watch today are movies that were made 10 years ago or older. People think that theatres are outdated have never expierenced real theatric immersion.
